leon panetta calling for ethics training for military officers. >> that's right. in a memo september to the joint chiefs of staff is asking them to brain storm on ways to keep officers out of trouble. the kind of trouble that has tarnished the military's reputation for integrity and character. the memo was the product of internal pentagon discussions that began before petraeus announced he was resigning. the reason scandals that ensnared petraeus and john allen have only added to the urgency of this review. at the same time, panetta said he still retains full confidence in general john allen, that while his promotion to become supreme allied commander of europe has been put on hold while the d.o.d. inspector general investigates hundreds of allegedly provocative e-mails that he exchanged with jill kelly. >> what i don't want to do is to try to characterize those communications because i think -- i don't want to do anything that would impact on their ability to conduct an objective review of what was contained in those e-mails. >> this type of ig investigation usua

but today, leon panetta was saying we're not coming to any conclusions. he was out on camera saying he's a great guy, and a great leader. and i think he got pushed back from the white house that probably wasn't that happy they went out and kind of threw john allen under the bus so quickly. but i-- you know, on first blush, this is nothing like petraeus. on the other hand, you've got a general in afghanistan back and forth, 12 emails a day with this socialite in tampa who they say are friends of theirs. i think there's still a possibility that some e-mails may have been inappropriate. that's why doing this investigation, that's why they don't want to clear him right away. it's also that issue of when you think about it, going into private e-mails, how many of us would want people going into our private e-mails? so this started as jill kelly getting harassment e-mails from an anonymous kelly patrol, and it turned out, according to officials, was paula broadwell. but in that investigation, they go into all these private e-mails. it's a really interesting-- g
